The 32nd Lake O' the Pines Rallye Recap

September 29th – October 2nd  - 2016

Rallye Chairman - Dennis Tackett

This year's rallye moved away from Big Cypress Marina by Lake O' the Pines to Diamond Don's RV Park located just one mile north of Jefferson, TX. The turnout was exceptional and there was a record number of beautiful motorcycles in the bike show!  The well maintained campground located in the woods of East Texas provided a great venue for our 32nd rallye.  The campground sits on 100 acres and has 50 RV hook ups, clean restrooms, free Wi-Fi, a huge covered pavilion with a stage, sound system, lighting.  In short it was a great weekend with our wonderful new host, Diamond Don!  We're be back there next year.
